Daily Reminders

Do it for you.

Daily Reminders

There are things we need to be reminded of every day just to get us through. Often times we are at a loss for words, or feeling worthless and lonely because of other people, but these are things that we do to ourselves. We need reminders that we are still valid.

1. You are important.

You matter. People need you in their lives and wouldn't know what to do without you. Without your companionship they'd be lost. People will take you for granted but at the end of the day you are what gets them through the day.

2. Stop putting other people's happiness first.

This is super important. You can try to build mountains for people just so that they can see the view but it'll only matter in the moment. When everyone else is happy around you, you're still not going to be happy. You have to put you first. Don't do things because other people want you to. This is hard but it needs to be remembered.

3. Alone time is necessary.

Being alone is okay. In fact, it is more than okay. Doing things that you want to do, watching the shows that you want to watch; THAT'S FINE. Do yourself a favor and lay in bed alone all day with everything that you enjoy because you deserve it.

4. Fresh air will do you good.

Going outside and taking a walk is good for you. Take in the air and look around at what all of nature has to offer to you. Lay in the grass or just sit outside. Respect what's around you.

5. Treat yourself.

Just eat that cookie, or that ice cream cone especially when you're sad.

You is kind. You is smart. You is important. Don't forget it.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
